It never fails ... Lefties really don't seem to like Israel. Even when they are the clear victims of horrific, terrorist attacks like they were yesterday, our pals on the Left and in the Democratic Party always find a way to make them out to be the villains.
Or as one guest on MSNBC implied, deserving of being attacked.
Why? It's so obvious who the real terrorists are here, so why is it so difficult for the Left to support Israel?
Check out this thread from Twitchy favorite, Ian McKelvey:
Why are so many leftists so supportive of Hamas? And why do they oppose Israel so vigorously? It’s not because Israel is an “apartheid” state. That’s a ridiculous assertion. Rather, as Ilhan Omar said, it’s “all about the Benjamins.” Let me explain.#FreePalastine #Hamas

It's all about the Benjamins.
Awww yes, we remember that one.
First, to take a wider view, let’s have a look back. Joseph Goebbels said this in 1932. He made the argument that Jews are the “incarnation of capitalism.” They “plunder and steal” from others. Sound familiar?

So this is about hating capitalism.
Huh.
Interesting that Goebbels linked socialism with anti-Semitism, no? Also interesting that he directly linked capitalism with the hatred of Jews. This was in 1932, but fast forward to present day, and you will find that these links still exist. pic.twitter.com/E6t8zYQQ3j

Interesting is a good word here.
Indeed, socialists across the spectrum proudly endorse Hamas. The reason why? Because they view Israel as evil, capitalist oppressors. Hamas kills Jews and therefore kills capitalists. It’s really just that simple. pic.twitter.com/KHZEC16Rhb

When you think about it, sadly, this lines up with what we see from socialists. Heck, even the so-called 'Socialist Democrats' in The Squad have been out front and center calling for a de-escalation of violence AFTER Israel was attacked. Imagine if they had been doing this BEFORE, instead of insisting over an over again Israel is an apartheid state.
We see them for who they really are.
Goebbels’s anti-Semitic tropes are alive and well today, and they are parroted by socialists who screech “FASCIST!” at anyone who pushes back against them. A stunning lack of self awareness.

A stunning lack of self awareness and a sad, sad irony.
